Soyuz launched: a Russian actress and director also on board

The Soyuz MS-19 shuttle was launched as scheduled, at 10:55 am Italian time from the Baikonur base in Kazakhstan , which will take to the Space Station International three new Russian crew members. Not only astronaut Anton Shkaplerov, who will remain in orbit until March, but also actress Yulia Peresild and director Klim Shipenko. The two will stay 12 days to film some scenes from the movie ‘Challenge’, about an emergency during a space flight. The Soyuz MS-19 shuttle will make two orbits until it hooks up to the hatch of the Rassvet module, vacated in recent days by the Soyuz MS-18 (moved to the new Nauka module). Docking to the Space Station is scheduled at 2:12 pm (Italian time) and the hatch will open at 4:05 pm. “We are ready, although of course we are nervous. And for this we support each other all the time – wrote Peresild on Instagram, before to leave – It is always difficult and scary to be a pioneer, but it is very interesting “.

The new primacy of Russia

The arrival of this new crew on the Space Station marks a new space record for Russia over America , which despite having won the race for the Moon, cannot include the first satellite, the first man in space, the first woman, the first spacewalk, the first multi-member crew and the first space station. Now Russia aims to write another record, with the launch of an actress and a director on the Space Station to film scenes of a movie about a medical emergency in orbit , thus surpassing any Western actor. In fact, NASA is not planning anything of the kind, even if Tom Cruise seems to be considering a similar project.
